ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a oscillation circuit suitable for high-frequency oscillation, and particularly to a high-frequency oscillation circuit having a feedback loop which can be used for a high frequency circuit of communication equipment and the like to improve a frequency and amplitude characteristics of the oscillation signals.
2. Description of the Prior Art
In general, a high-frequency circuit used for a communication equipment such as TV, radio receiver, high-frequency radio equipment, and a high-frequency measuring instrument and the like move a signal from the base band to the high-frequency band and vice verse.
For this, the high-frequency circuit mixes signals in the base band or high frequency signals with carrier signals originating from a local oscillation source. This local oscillation source comprises colpitts oscillator, Hartley oscillator, clap oscillator, or other oscillators modified from the above.
However, since the oscillators in the conventional art generate harmonic components in the oscillation signal, an additional band pass filter or band stop amplifier in the oscillators is necessary to reduce the harmonic components. In addition, since the oscillators in the conventional art include numerous harmonic components in the oscillation signal, a filter circuit has to be included in the oscillator in order to reduce the spurious and it is difficult to design a broadband pass amplifier. Further, the harmonic components in the oscillating signals give considerable burden to the receiving circuit, since which cause problems of image signals in the receiving circuit. Furthermore, there are many problems, such as the increase of loss of signals, circuit complexity, and manufacturing cost.
A conventional high-frequency oscillation circuit is shown in FIG.

. Referring to
FIG. 1
, the high-frequency oscillation circuit are composed of a resonance circuit part
10
and an oscillation circuit part
20
, and the resonance circuit part
10
and the oscillation circuit part
20
are connected each other by a coupling capacitor
16
. The resonance part
10
is composed of an inductor
12
and a capacitor
14
. The oscillation circuit part
20
includes a bipolar transistor
22
, a resistor
24
and a capacitor
26
connected in parallel between the emitter and ground of the bipolar transistor
22
, and a capacitor
28
connected between the emitter and the base of the bipolar transistor
22
. A power source
30
is connected to the base and collector of the bipolar transistor
22
through the resistors
32
and
34
which are connected in parallel.
Wherein, the capacitor
16
is placed between the resonance circuit part
10
and the oscillation circuit part
20
and passes alternating signals only. The bipolar transistor
22
is driven by the voltage which is applied through the resistor
32
from the voltage source
30
. The resistor
32
is a bias resistor of the bipolar transistor
22
and regulates the voltage value supplied to the base of the bipolar transistor
22
. The resistor
34
functions as a load resistor of the bipolar transistor
22
.
The resistor
24
of the oscillation circuit part
20
is connected to the emitter of the bipolar transistor
22
and limits the quantity of the current flowing on the emitter of the bipolar transistor
22
. The capacitor
26
bypasses the high-frequency noise signal and matches the impedances of the base and the emitter of the bipolar transistor
22
. The capacitor
28
feed back the signal originating from the emitter of the bipolar transistor
22
into the base thereof. The capacitors
26
and
28
set up the phase condition of the oscillation circuit.
In the conventional high-frequency oscillation circuit having such a construction, the oscillation frequency is determined by the unique resonance frequency of the resonance circuit part
10
, the capacitances of the capacitors
26
and
28
, and the inner capacitance value of the bipolar transistor
22
.
However, the capacitors
26
and
28
used in the conventional oscillation circuit have a problem that the gain of the feedback loop
20
cannot be enlarged because of the restriction on the composition due to the of phase condition of the oscillation circuit. Accordingly, the oscillation circuit of the conventional art has to use a transistor having high cutoff frequency, and the resulting oscillation signal includes numerous harmonic components. Therefore, the oscillation circuit of the conventional art has the problem that band pass filter, band stop amplifier and the like have to be added thereto.
